A SALOON VICTORY.
A Chicago Judge Decides the Minor Liquor
Law Void.

A Chicago Judge Decidesthe Minor Liquor
Law Void.
CHICAGO, December 19.-Judge McAll.
ister this morning decided that the city
ordinance, prohibiting the sale Of liquors
to minors, was void.
A few days ago Oscar Mattbia, who
keeps q concert saloon, was arrested for
selling wine 10 Linnie st. Clair, sixteen
year old girl, who was abducted by .
Young man whom she had met in concert
saloons. Matthia applied for release un-
der the habeas corpus act. The judge held
that the portion Of the ordinance, which
revokes saloon-keeper's license on Sec
ond offence is unconstitutional.
Among the grounds for this opinion are
that the general Incorporation act does not
give the city council power to pass sach an
ordinance, The act gives the council pow
er to levy fines, not to exceed 500, and
imprison the offender not To exceed six
months. Forfeiture Of license is neither
fine or imprisonment. Again, the dram
shop act provides punishment to saloon
keepers selling 10 minors, except in cases
where the minor brings u written request
from the parent. The ordinance punished
the seller or giver away Of drink, regard
less of such request, thereby contravening
the statute. Matthia was discharged and
the decision gives great JOY TO the saloon
keepers.
